One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Several amazing days deep in the Amazonian jungle, leaving only with village-locals, which were so kind and so warm with all the four of us!

Looking, a lot of time, two huge Indian Ocean volcano irruptions, from the sky all the six of us and alone from a car!

Associations «RSA ("Réseau Santé Provence"), Venelles» and «Réseau SHA ("Sida Hépatites Addictions"), Aix-en-Provence» : volunteer-reinforcement ("bénévole"), 2004-2012, aids, hepatitis, drogues.
